My son will be SO HAPPY about it

Whoa, that's surprising that Europe is getting it so soon after Bony Spirits and Fleshy Souls. We've had to wait a YEAR. Sounds like YW really is more popular in Europe

Thats the case for pretty much every Level 5/Nintendo Project.

Didn't yokai watch 2 just realised this year in Europe?

I thought it did diasterous in the UK but did very well in Spain.

The other eu countries I can't remember how well it did.

This announcement makes me hopeful for Layton seeing a retail release here.

Like every Level 5 games, it did bad in UK, and great in France/Spain.

And that's mainly because their tie-in animes air on free TV in those countries.

Includes all content from the other Yokai Watch 2 games. Cool. But you need to play those games to see some other new content. What.


I LOVED Yokai Watch 1 and due to time missed 2, need to get on this glad it's coming soon and hopefully will be followed by 3.
I'll probably pick up the other two versions as well for the collection if they go on sale for this game.

Damn lol, right beside the Snes Classic, Pokken and the Pokemon Gold rerelease. Going to have to make some decisions here, I only have so much free time. I really want to support them bringing this here at the same time though, the later releases of the last two games sucked the wind out the sales a bit.

Yeah, it's pretty much like Pokemon in this regard. Even the third versions of each generation didn't have every Pokemon of its region available. There were still a few you needed to trade from the two opposite versions.

 

[Opa-Pa]

Based Europe saving YW in the west.

I already knew about this (along with Busters and YW3) due to some spanish leak, but it's still nice to have a confirmation.

 

[Shiggy]

September 29 date confirmed now: https://twitter.com/NintendoUK/status/892006949155254272

Kinda weird they didn't say that outright as retailers had that date right from the start.

 

[Tomita]

Huh, not sure I'll pick this up. I haven't even touched Yo-kai Watch 2 -- though that's more due to having not much time, and having to replay like 80% of the first game after a kid deleted my save file. So I took a break with the sequel because I didn't want burn-out. Since I'm still playing Dragon Quest VII, it'll probably be a while. And this new game doesn't seem to have enough content to justify me buying it at the moment.

Ah well, hopefully it does decently enough to justify release of future Yo-kai games! Even though they took the female protag out of the third iteration of the games, I still want to play it.

Also, the OP title should probably be edited to say that the game is also releasing in North America on the same date.
